Bail or Jail: The Global Fight for Justice Around the world, millions of legally innocent people are detained before trial simply because they cannot afford bail. Bail or Jail: The Global Fight for Justice offers a compelling and meticulously researched examination of how wealth, race, and systemic inequality shape pretrial detention—transforming justice into a privilege of the few rather than a right for all. Drawing on international human rights law, comparative legal systems, real-world case studies, and reform movements across continents, this book unveils the hidden consequences of money bail and pretrial incarceration. From overcrowded jails in India and the United States to progressive community-based alternatives in Germany, Canada, and New Zealand, it explores both the deep flaws and the transformative possibilities within justice systems worldwide. Written by a legal advocate and researcher, this work is not only a call for reform but a roadmap for it. Through in-depth chapters covering legal foundations, human rights violations, economic impacts, racial disparities, juvenile detention, and mental health in custody, Bail or Jail challenges readers to rethink the meaning of justice, fairness, and liberty in the modern age. Whether you are a policymaker, law student, legal professional, activist, or concerned citizen, this book will equip you with a clear understanding of the issues—and the tools to advocate for change.
